Spider-Man is a Marvel comic series character and a fictional character in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. He can be unlocked by getting 100% in Career Mode with a created skater. He also returns for the Xbox remake, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X and is unlocked with the same unlocking method as in the original.
Origin[]
Spider-Man appears as a hidden guest character modeled after his appearance from the 2000 PS1 game also developed by Neversoft. While Spider-Man mostly excels as a vert skater, his other stats are still high ranking making him one of the best skaters in the game.
He returns once again in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X. With a new updated model, modeled after his 2000 PS1 appearance, alongside all his additional costumes.
Due to copyright and licensing issues, Spider-Man did not return in the game Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, making him the only guest secret character to not make the cut in a remake. However, it is possible to include Spider-Man into the game through modding the PC version of the game.
Appearance[]
Spider-Man is presented in 4 outfits originating from his home game on PS1:
- Style A: default red-blue outfit
- Style B: Symbiote outfit
- Style C: Spider-Armor outfit
- Style D: Captain Universe outfit
Special tricks[]
- Spidey Flip
- Spidey Grind
- Does Whatever a Spider Can
Trivia[]
- Spider-Man is the only skater to feature 4 outfits in THPS2.
- A special skeleton was used for Spider-Man's model to feature unique special tricks and poses.
- Spider-Man animations can be found as a leftover in THPS3 Anims folder.
- In Spider-Man's own game on PlayStation, which was also made by Neversoft, there's a billboard advertising Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. If Spider-Man goes by it, he will say "Tony Hawk! Hey I skated with that guy". Spider-Man would be released on August 30, 2000, 3 weeks before Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, which was released on September 19, 2000.
